Who is typically responsible for creating Purchase Requisitions in GFEBS?

The responsibility for creating Purchase Requisitions in GFEBS typically lies with the requesting department or individual. This is because the Purchase Requisition process is designed to capture the specific needs of different departments within an organization. These departments identify what goods or services are needed for their operations and generate the requisitions accordingly. This ensures that the purchases are relevant and aligned with departmental goals.

While finance officers may be involved in overseeing the budgeting and funding aspects of the requisitions, they do not initiate them. External suppliers are not involved in creating Purchase Requisitions, as they respond to requests made by the organization. IT specialists within GFEBS play a supportive role in maintaining the system but are not responsible for creating requisitions themselves. Thus, it is the function of the requesting department or individual to formally articulate their needs through the Purchase Requisition process in GFEBS.
